Global Trends
Energy Consumption & Climate Change
Mobility = Freedom
Urbanization 1900: 13% in cities = 220 million inhabitants 1950: 30% 2007: 50% 2030: 60% in cities = 5 billion inhabitants 2050: 70%
Megacities vs. Rural Areas 63 cities > 3 million inhabitants

Challenges for the 21st Century
Mobility EU: Compromises on the quality of
mobility are not an option Inclusive mobility for the informed citizen Optimized city logistics including last
mile transport and removal of wasteSustainable Urban Mobility Plans (SUMPs)
consider the functional urban area based on a wider urban and territorial strategy
Cleaner and more sustainable transport modes, such as walking, cycling, public transport
New patterns for car use and ownership

Challenges for the 21st Century
Energy Sustainability & energy saving Decarbonisation Avoiding of air pollution Smart meters and awareness Cost saving
Electrical networks become bidirectional due to distributed renewable power sources
Pollution & climate change are becoming visibleElectrical vehicles contribute to better air quality in
cities and have their CO2-emissions elsewhere (if any)

Challenges for the 21st Century
Smart citizens The education of citizens how to use their city
may be more effective with gamification replacing teaching in schools
Improvements in quality of life and convenience are more important than technology for the sake of itself.
Solutions requiring activity from citizens have to care for usability
Awareness for environmental effects and cost-saving will be important drivers for applications in smart cities.
Each City is unique and shall be livable
